10 Pounds of Broken Talavera Mexican Ceramic Tile in Mixed Decorative Designs Multicolor

I have used broken Talavera tile from Tierra y Fuego in my artwork for several years and have always been completely satisfied with my purchases. I’m especially impressed by how fast I get my shipments. I already have the tile for a new commission I received only a few days ago. I think some of the buyers who complain about lack of quality might not be familiar with the characteristics of these tiles. The Mexican Talavera tiles are terra cotta, softer and more crumbly than some other types of clay, so nipped pieces can be irregular. You can use a wet saw if you want perfect little squares or rectangles. And, yes, you have to order several shipments over a period of time in order to get a nice variety of colors and designs in patterned tiles. I’m okay with that, since I order frequently, anyway.

I had a great time using these in my home. I had originally purchased them to decorate outdoor pots but was told the seal may not hold through our very wet winters in the Pacific NW so I switched direction and used them to surround an archway in our kitchen. I used an "Easy Mat" from Home Depot to adhere them and then grouted them. LOVE THE LOOK! Great assortment of colors and shapes. At the end I did break a few into smaller pieces with pliers and rubber mallet to fill into smaller spaces. In the box I received (which came fast) about 2/3 of them had one smooth edge and the remainder were rough all the way around. Most were triangle shaped. I am thinking of buying more. Had a great time putting them up.

Would love more colors! ❤️ Thank you

I am over the moon delighted with these tiles. The colors are beautiful and varied yet they coordinate perfectly for the bench I am covering. They came in nice big pieces I can trim to size. Just gorgeous
